Got my LA Harbor piece the other day. Reminds me of Middle Bay. Why do all the sailboats have red sails. Harbour Lights is only a 2 hour drive from LA. Haven't they ever heard of "Dodger Blue". How about blue, yellow, green,....I still love the piece,though, I may just buy some of my own paint.

Hi Jeff,... I was kind of wondering why they have to be sailboats. I know sailboats are photogenic, but I'm a powerboat owner! (LOL) I have to go now. I'm working on a new song called "Red Sails In The Sunset".  Bob

Is there more than one sailboat with a red sail used on Harbour Lights?

The sail on my Middle Bay is off-white.
But the cow is red.

Red Cow? What does it give? Tomato juice? This could be the latest variation to be noted. My Middle Bay piece has a brown cow. In case you're wondering, it does not give chocolate milk. (LOL) Bob

Red sails, Brown cows, Red cows. Sail vs power(been both). Why can't we all just enjoy what we have. I don't think I have any of those!!!!!!!!!!
